The Contagious Diseases (Animals) Act 1878 was an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom passed by Benjamin Disraeli's Conservative government. A select committee was appointed in 1877 to investigate animal diseases. The resulting Act established central rather than local control over all outbreaks of animal disease.
